Of all the President Donald Trump merchandise available on his reelection campaign website, one product really sucks: straws.

“Liberal paper straws don’t work,” reads the product description. “STAND WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP and buy your pack of recyclable straws today.”

The ten-pack of straws, which can be yours for the low, low price of $15.00 (plus tax and shipping) are — literally just plain red plastic straws with the word “Trump” stamped on the side.

If there was ever any doubt, let it hereby be laid to rest — Trump is a straw man.

  1. Owning The Libs By Selling Trump Campaign…Straws

    Headline taken directly from right wing nutter media, reproduced faithfully by TPM.

  2. Trump is counting on the GULLIBILITY and HATEFULNESS of his racist maggoted-MAGAts while laughing all the way to the bank to enrich himself!

  3. For an extra 99.99, your favorite racist can purchase a straw used by supreme leader himself! But you might want to wash the adderall powder off the intake.

  4. Would anyone like to guess where I would tell him where to shove those straws?

  5. Anyone stupid enough to buy these is stupid enough to vote for him.

    ETA: Geez, it must be Friday. My brain is so fried (and overloaded by this week’s political Crapalooza) that I actually thought the above statement was witty. :woozy_face:

    (It’s the end of my working day, so I am going home to a glass of cold rosé and try to recover…)
